You are not alone, Astrid must die to put an end to the worst quest in the game. Many consider the dark brotherhood a great thing, but not me. The thieves guild is not a favorite either but I did play it through once in 2016.

You should pick the version you want to play. No one knows your preferred way to play and since both are still viable options for modding, the decision is yours. If you are looking for recommendations here's one: GOG $19 AE. Mine is running just fine with 533 mods but it took awhile to add them. There are a few GOG compatible collections available which makes things much easier, especially for premium accounts. Let us know how it goes, OK?

Go here: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition Type followers into the search bar and several follower mods will appear. I use AFT and have had as many as 6 followers without problems. There are also individual followers that you can get, Sofia, Recorder, Inigo, etc.

You could use the console command: tgm You will not die. Then set difficulty at highest.

anjenthedog, keep living by your delusions. One of the first things I noticed 3 years ago when I started Skyrim was how helpful the Foxes are.

I had the same issue after the last update. Try this: Start steam before you try to launch skyrim. Then launch skyrim with the skse64 _loader application. I always start steam in offline mode. It works for me.

Never mind, I am still working on the solution. Edit: Well that did not work, the dragon is flying around through wells and after finally clicking on him so he would stop and disabling him, Malesan still will not talk. Is there a console command to skip Siege? I saw no reference in showquesttargets. I had diverse dragons but disabled it with no positive result, what other type of mod might interfere?

Rigmore, whether or not you are able to do so (make a patch), Thank You for the prompt attention and for an excellent addition to the game. BTW, is there supposed to be a dragon in Bruma palace in the enter by sewer part and if so, how can he be pinned down? The npc crew goes nuts and no advance is possible. I get "Talk to Malesam" but cannot and showquesttargets does not seem to have an entry for this part.

First, Rigmor of Bruma and Cyrodiil are great additions and all the time and effort put in by all involved is much appreciated, Thank You all. I do however agree with varkonasnorse, Rigmor is diminished by the gratuitous use of foul language. Her hatred of her tormentors is understandable but her verbal reactions are way too 2018. Rigmor is a bit of a crybaby also, more a 2018 teen than a legendary Heroine from the mists of time. That said, I liked Bruma and am liking Cyrodiil. Is anyone having a problem with the "enter the palace through the sewer" mission? Getting in is easy but then.... Entering is simple but what ensues seems problematic, any advice appreciated.
